 This is the next generation of the Bartlett Historical Society's web site and our web master, David Eliason, is doing a great job making it interactive. Hopefully members and friends will provide input that will further enhance the site and make Bartlett history more personal and interesting.  Thanks David!

One of my many fond memories of Bartlett is being in first grade (1944-45 school year) with Mrs. Lucielle Garland as teacher. She would line us up every morning and have us hold our hands in front of us. She then checked to make sure we had clean hands and clean fingernails. She was a wonderful person and teacher.

  The new Bartlett web site is great. I'll be exploring it frequently. I wish I could be at the annual meeting to hear Mr. Peter Crane talk about Livermore. My grandparents, Charles and Martha Knight used to live in Livermore. Grandpa Knight was the train engineer on the steam train that hauled logs out to the main line in Crawford Notch.

 My association with Livermore is that my dad, Edward Boynton Knight, used to take me deer hunting around Livermore during the mid 1950s.

Great addition for genealogists to have the link to the Town Reports. Nice layout and pretty easy to navigate throughout. Good Job.

  We have been visitors to the area for 30 yrs., residents (part time) for 4 yrs. at Bartlett Place; and soon to be owners of a new home on Parker Ridge Rd. We love Bartlett and the whole Mt. Washington Valley and hope to eventually spend ALL of our time here. We hope to get acquainted with alot of those connected with the Historical Society and Bartlett in general...

  Adam Barttelot (1046-1100) was my 27th Great Grandfather.  The Barrtelot/Bartlett name was in my family up to the birth of my Great Grandmother, Frances Bartlett born 1880.  My Grandmother\'s name was Frances Bartlett Prest born 1898.  I have been working with tree maker and Ancestry.com.   I haven\'t quit figured out what number Josiah Bartlett is but he is either my cousin or Uncle. 

 

Thank you for having the Bartlett History on the internet.

       David has done a superb job in putting together some of the history of Barlett. Having spent my first nineteen years theRE and exploring, hunting, fishing, education, and just plain fun there are a lot of memories. The town today does not resemble the town as I remember it. Thanks for the memories.

This is a great website, found it by accident. I love Bartlett, both my mother's family, the Ainsworths, and my father's family, the Judds, lived there when I was growing up. It was a special town, no better place to grow up.

 My Grandparents John G. Markley and Mary W. Markley bought 80 acres on Jericho rd. around 1959 from Mr. Cannell. I spent my summers there as a child for 16 years. I still dream of being there quite often. I have never seen such a beautiful place since. The wonderful memories of swimming in the rocky Branch River and the trips to Silver Springs after dinner with my Grandfather to get penny candy.There was a small farm across the street from my Grandparents owned by Everett and Nellie Towle and Earnest and Isabelle Grey. That is where I fell in love with cows. I spent many hours playing in their barn and pasture with their grandchildren. I remember going to the Post Office with my Grandfather. It was in a house on 302 and I believe the postmasters name was Mrs. Chandler.I went to bibl! e school at a little white church across the street from what is now the Red Parka Pub. I still have my diploma. I just loved looking at your old photos. I have copies of some very old photos of the Rocky Branch that I will dig out and send you.

 

jULY 31 2020:     I am doing some research on the Knight Family. George Washington Knight and George Lincoln Knight came to Bartlett as permanent residents in or about 1881. They both lived the rest of thier lives in Bartlett. George W's daughter and husband also were in Bartlett or Hart's Location from 1881 to 1883. During that time Nellie J and Myrtle F Rich were born. The on-line Bartlett Town Report of 1892 does not list either one. Does some one have access to the 1890 and 1891 Town Report for Bartlett and the 1889-1892 Reports for Hart's Location or Livermore? could they

 

 either e-mail a copy of the appropriate pages or send me copies?

George C Rich was the father and Viola Knight Rich the mother. After they were in Bartlett, George Rich moved to Lancaster where he worked for the MEC until 1914 when he opened a butcher market on Main St.

Charles Curtis Rich, George and Viola's son, came back to Bartlett with the MEC around 1909. He was a car inspector and then went to Rhode Island and Connecticut for the rest of his life. He is buried in Lancaster. While they were here they had Myrtle B in 1916. Please see if there is a record in the 1917 Bartlett Town Record also.

Thank you for your help

I have many fond memories of Bartlett from 6yrs old to 14yrs old. I used to spend my summers in Bartlett with my grandparents, Albert and Olive (Drown) Garon. My father graduated from BHS around 1943. I'm seeing names on the website that I knew in the 60's. My great-great grandmother was Mary Abigail Cook, born in Porter ME in 1830 and died in Bartlett (West Side Rd.) Buried at Hill Cemetary. Can never seem to find it. Anyway, Dave, great job on the new look of the web site. I'll come back often. Rick Garon

Ask Constance Dudley if she remembers me. I had a summer crush on her sister Diane back in the 50's and 60's.


September 21, 2011:   Liz pace, 41 Puddingstone lane, bellingham, mass:     It was so nice to see the pictures of the flood on River Street from 1967 with my grandparents Betty & Win Whitman. Would love to get a copy of those pictures.   (Note: the pictures referred to are here  )


September 24, 2011:  Rick garon - 8 hollis drive - hampstead, nh: 
Although I only spent my summers and school vacations with my grandparent Adalbert and Olive Garon, I feel somewhat connected with Bartlett. My father Raymond graduated from BHS in the 40's. My grandfather worked for the RR as station agent in Bartlett, Crawford's, Sawyer River and Whitefield. The Drowns of Bartlett are my ancestors on my grandmother's side. I have many great memories hanging around with the kids of Bartlett: Roger Clemons, Merle Burke, the Trecartens, Diane Dudley, etc. Haying with Dale Trecarten, 2nd Iron. Keep up the good work. I'll visit the site often.

My dad, Lawrence C. DuPont is buried in the Garland Ridge Cemetery. He was a WWII veteran, served at Omaha Beach, Normandy on D Day and liberated a concentration camp in Germany. He was absolutely amazing as a husband and as a father to us 3 kids. He was also wonderful to his parents.

Any history on the cemetery would be greatly appreciated. My grandfather Angus MacDonald is also buried there. A beautiful place.

Love your area. Here I am living in Ma. and loving your area. Bartlett..Livermore.. My Grandfather Pierre Girouard came from Canada into the USA on 3/11/1912. Wish he went to Bartlett or Livermore. Livermore was known for Canadian woodsmen. But in my research I find no Girouard's in Bartlett or Livermore. My Grandfather and Grandmother came to New Bedford Ma. to work in the Cotton Factories..oh well Shh!! My wife thinks in my past life I lived in your area..Bartlett..Livermore..or Carrigain....Mmm I think she could be right!!!bob

I have been trying to find my family history and so far it leads me to Elijah Dinsmore. He is buried in the Dinsmore Cemetary at Intervale, as also his son, Elijah Dinsmore, Jr.
I was hoping to find a grave of his son Colonel Stephen Dinsmore as well.
Thank you,
Kim (Dinsmore) Kitsos
